SAN RAMON, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul 28, 2026--

MedLink Global, Inc. today announced that its MedLink Psychiatric tool has been qualified as a solution on Mayo Clinic Platform, making the company's AI-assisted, measurement-based mental healthcare solution available through Mayo Clinic Platform's ecosystem of healthcare technologies.

The MedLink Psychiatric tool combines two complementary offerings - the AI-assisted Psychiatric Intake Module and the MaiNDS™ Assessment Module - designed to help clinicians collect structured patient data, assess psychiatric symptom severity and complexity across diagnostic domains, and support longitudinal measurement-based care.

Mental healthcare continues to face growing challenges, including increasing demand for services, workforce shortages, and a lack of structured, longitudinal patient data. Traditional psychiatric evaluations often rely on fragmented and episodic information that can be difficult to standardize, quantify, and track over time. MedLink Global was founded to address these challenges by shifting structured data collection upstream to the pre-visit setting and creating a foundation for scalable, measurement-based care.

Founded at UC Berkeley, MedLink Global was created by a multidisciplinary team across psychiatry, psychology, neuroscience, and healthcare innovation, including CEO and co-founder Ran Yang-Chawla, co-founder and renowned psychiatrist/clinical researcher in psychopharmacology Dr. Christoph U. Correll, and psychometric expert Dr. Mark Blais. The clinical tool is powered by the MaiNDS™ assessment, which is based on Dr. Blais’ research and provides a comprehensive framework for measuring psychiatric symptom severity and complexity across diverse patient populations.

The MedLink Psychiatric tool combines AI-assisted psychiatric intake with MaiNDS™, a low-burden, broadband psychometric assessment designed to measure the severity and complexity of psychiatric symptoms across multiple diagnostic domains. Together, the modules enable clinicians to gather comprehensive patient information before a visit, screen for a broad range of symptoms within a single session, and monitor symptom progression over time. The MedLink Psychiatric Platform integrates into existing clinical workflows and electronic health record systems and is designed for use across psychiatry, primary care, neurology, sleep medicine, pain management, geriatrics, transplant medicine, and other specialties where neuropsychiatric symptoms commonly present.

“Despite tremendous advances in medicine, psychiatry has long been constrained by fragmented information and a lack of structured longitudinal data,” says Ran Yang-Chawla, Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder, MedLink Global. “By integrating our Psychiatric Intake and MaiNDS™ modules with Mayo Clinic Platform, we are helping healthcare organizations build the data foundation needed for more consistent, evidence-based mental healthcare. Our vision is to transform psychiatry into a measurable, evidence-based discipline where clinicians have the information they need.”

Through Mayo Clinic Platform Solutions Studio, MedLink Global completed a rigorous qualification process evaluating the solution's intended use, clinical utility, psychometric validation, and performance across heterogeneous patient populations.

"Mayo Clinic Platform Solutions Studio program supports digital health solutions developers with the infrastructure and ecosystem needed to bring digital solutions into real-world clinical and administrative workflows," says Steve Bethke, vice president of Solution Developer Market at Mayo Clinic Platform. "The program evaluates each solution for intended use, proposed value, and clinical and algorithmic performance, providing transparency and credibility, and enabling the adoption of transformative health technologies.​"

MedLink Global also participated in the Mayo Clinic Platform_Accelerate program to develop an AI-powered mental health clinical decision-support solution with millions of de-identified clinical data points.

The MedLink Psychiatric Platform is designed to support, not replace, clinical judgment. The solution generates structured clinical summaries, symptom severity profiles, and longitudinal tracking tools that help clinicians prepare for visits with more consistent, reproducible information while reducing documentation burden and improving workflow efficiency. Beyond psychiatry, the solution also helps clinicians across medical specialties identify and evaluate psychiatric symptoms that may impact a patient's overall health and treatment outcomes.

SAN LEANDRO, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul 28, 2026--

C-Crete Technologies has published two Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) verifying that its cements cut embodied carbon by up to 95% versus conventional portland cement. C-Crete’s technology converts a broad range of natural rocks and industrial by-products into cementitious binders with no clinker and no kiln, so production is inherently decentralized — and it is already being poured in commercial concrete today.

Verified performance, not projections

C-Crete’s clinker-free Ultra Low Carbon Cement ( NRMCA EPD 20353 ) reports a global warming potential of just 43.1 kg CO 2 -eq per metric ton — roughly 95% below the 919 kg CO 2 -eq reported in the Portland Cement Association’s industry-average EPD for U.S. portland cement. A second declaration ( NRMCA EPD 20355 ) covers a family of products: clinker-free versions range from 129 to 187 kg CO 2 -eq per metric ton (80–86% lower), while blended versions that retain some clinker range from 227 to 312 kg (66–75% lower). Both are third-party-verified Type III EPDs, developed under ISO 14025 and ISO 21930 and published through the National Ready Mixed Concrete Association (NRMCA).

The reductions come without sacrificing performance. C-Crete’s cements meet the ASTM C1157 hydraulic cement standard, reaching more than 5,200 psi at 28 days. The savings come from eliminating clinkerization — firing limestone in a kiln at roughly 1,450°C, the source of most of cement’s CO 2 — and instead activating natural minerals or industrial by-products through a proprietary chemistry.

One platform, many raw materials

C-Crete’s platform activates a wide spectrum of feedstocks into cementitious binder: natural minerals such as limestone, dolomite, granite, basalt, zeolite, pumice, and tuff, and industrial by-products and waste streams such as slag, fly ash, recycled concrete, and mine tailings. That lets producers build low-carbon cement from whatever materials are plentiful in their region — turning industrial and mining waste into a resource.

Built for local production and partnership

Conventional cement is capital-intensive and geographically fixed: a single clinker kiln can cost hundreds of millions of dollars. C-Crete inverts that model. With no kiln and no high-temperature calcination, and feedstocks abundant in nearly every region, production carries a far smaller capital and energy footprint and can be sited close to demand. For established producers, that is a capital-light path to a verified low-carbon product line that works within existing operations and distribution, draws on regional feedstocks, and helps meet tightening low-carbon procurement mandates. Rather than displacing incumbents, C-Crete’s model is designed to be adopted by them, market by market.

Already in commercial use — and ready for standards worldwide

This is not a laboratory concept: C-Crete’s binders are already being batched and poured in commercial concrete, a material producers can specify and place today. Nor is it limited to one market. Beyond the U.S. ASTM C1157 standard, the platform is well positioned for international standards that permit high portland-cement replacement — for example, Europe’s EN 197 allows roughly 55% replacement under CEM IV/B-P and up to about 50% and 65% under the composite cements CEM II/C-M and CEM VI. As regions move to lower the clinker content of their cements, C-Crete’s binders are natural candidates to fill that role.

“Decarbonizing cement can’t happen from one plant or one country — it has to happen everywhere cement is made,” said Dr. Rouzbeh Savary, Founder and President of C-Crete. “Because our chemistry runs on raw materials that exist almost everywhere, it’s well suited to local, decentralized production rather than a handful of massive kilns — a natural fit for producers who want verified ultra-low-carbon cement in their own markets, and we’re glad to work alongside them.”
